Surround

DESIGNER: Khono Ichiro MATERIAL: Chakte Viga and Wenge RELEASE DATE: 5.3.21 EDITION: 40 SIZE: 2.625" (6.6 cm) Designed and first released at IPP in 2009, Surround is closely related to the [3]/[4]/[5] Cube designs by Kohno Ichiro. In this case, you must use six pieces to surround the solid cube in such a way that is self-supporting. Two solutions using magnets are possible. Another "rule-breaker" solution does not use magnets and covers the cube completely. The finished shape is pleasingly symmetrical and displays well. This batch of Surround was constructed from Chakte Viga and Wenge for a beautiful contrast. Approximately 40 copies of are available. Surround ships in an unsolved configuration. Our work is handcrafted to very precise tolerances and must be kept within the range of 40-60% relative humidity at all times. Failure to do so may cause inoperability or permanent damage. Please read the Caring for Wood Puzzles guide to ensure proper fit and operation. We recommend an occasional polishing with Renaissance Wax to keep wood puzzles in top condition.
